How to create radio buttons in django which fields use in form and model

I am new to Django and Python. I want to add a radio button in my form but it doesn't work.

forms.py:

from django import forms
from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.forms.widgets import RadioSelect
from choicebtn.models import myChoice


class myChoiceForm(UserCreationForm):
    name=forms.CharField(max_length=55)
    TYPE_SELECT = (('0', 'Female'),('1', 'male'),)
    gender=forms.ChoiceField(widgets.RadioSelect(choices=TYPE_SELECT))

    class Meta:
           model = myChoice
           fields = ['name','gender']

model.py:

from django.db import models
from django.forms.widgets import RadioSelect
from django.urls import reverse


class myChoice(models.Model):
    name=models.CharField(max_length=55)
    TYPE_SELECT = (('0', 'Female'),('1', 'male'),)
    gender=models.CharField(max_length=11,choices=TYPE_SELECT)

This only shows dropdownlist and textbox. It doesn't show radio buttons. Please help me.

Try something like this:

CHOICES = [('M','Male'),('F','Female')]

Gender=forms.CharField(label='Gender', widget=forms.RadioSelect(choices=CHOICES))

In models.py:

class myChoice(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=55)
    TYPE_SELECT = (
        ('0', 'Female'),
        ('1', 'male'),
    )
    gender = models.CharField(max_length=11,choices=TYPE_SELECT)

In forms.py:

class myChoiceForm(ModelForm):

    class Meta:
           model = myChoice
           fields = ['__all__']
           widgets = {
               'gender': forms.RadioSelect()
           }

You can try this:

 gender = forms.ChoiceField(choices=TYPE_SELECT, widget=forms.RadioSelect())

Correct way to use it.

1)models.py

from django import forms

class ExampleModel(models.Model):
    field1 = forms.ChoiceField(widget=forms.RadioSelect)

2)forms.py

class ExampleForm(forms.Form):
    field1 = forms.ChoiceField(required=True, widget=forms.RadioSelect(
    attrs={'class': 'Radio'}), choices=(('apple','Apple'),('mango','Mango'),))
